Expected Borussia Dortmund starting XI vs Freiburg
Goalkeeper: Gregor Kobel - The Swiss goalkeeper made his return from injury during the international break and will be raring to return to the Borussia Dortmund starting XI on Saturday.
Right-back: Julian Ryerson - We will likely see Ryerson start at right-back with Ramy Bensebaini available once again. The Norwegian international could be in for a tough assignment against Vincenzo Grifo.
Centre-back: Waldemar Anton - Borussia Dortmund will certainly be relieved to have a second fit senior centre-back in the starting XI once again. Anton will look to help keep things tight defensively after a few wayward performances from BVB in his absence.
Centre-back: Nico Schlotterbeck - Schlotterbeck has been a constant in the Borussia Dortmund starting XI since joining from SC Freiburg two years ago. The centre-back will look to deliver a strong performance and keep his former club at bay this weekend.
Left-back: Ramy Bensebaini - The Algerian international seems to have survived a recent injury scare and should be able to play from the start at left-back on Saturday. The other option would be to go with Ryerson at left-back and Yan Couto on the opposite flank.
